Honeysuckle Cottage is a large cottage in the lovely village of Middle Tysoe. This stylishly furnished cottage is ideal for large families or groups of friends who are seeking a wonderful getaway break to this stunning Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
At the end of a row of cottages you will find Honeysuckle Cottage, and upon entering through the front gate you will find the cottage’s stable-style front door, which opens into the wood panelled hallway, where you can kick off your shoes and enter into the large, dual aspect sitting room that has been lovingly furnished for complete comfort, where you can sink into one of the two three-seater sofas, and watch your favourite show on the Smart TV, as the woodburning stove keeps the room warm and toasty.
When dinner time comes around, make your way into the well-equipped kitchen/diner, and make use of the wonderful appliances such as the electric range cooker and fridge/freezer, to cook up delicious meals, before retreating to the bright and airy dining area to dig into your meal sat at the lovely reclaimed oak table.
Make use of the enclosed, south-west facing walled garden, which has a patio and gravelled area with an outdoor table set and a charcoal barbecue, perfect for alfresco dining in warmer months.
Back inside, you will find a handy utility room with a washer/dryer, as well as a cloakroom with a basin and WC and finally a rear hallway, which is a useful space to store coats and shoes.
A half-panelled staircase leads you up to the first floor, where there are two homely, welcoming king-size bedrooms with ample storage space for your belongings, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room, as well as the family bathroom which has an inviting bath, and a rain shower over, where you can enjoy an invigorating rinse and be welcomed by a toasty towel thanks to the heated towel rail!
A further staircase leads up to the eaves of the cottage, where there is a dual aspect twin room and a triple aspect twin room, sharing the floor with the shower room.
The early risers of the group can enjoy breakfast for two at the breakfast bar which has two adjustable height stools and then head out into the side courtyard area to take a seat at the wooden bench and take advantage of the morning sun, with a warming mug of coffee!
Once your group are ready for the day, head out and discover the delightful surrounding countryside, with spectacular views in this "off the beaten track" village which is largely self-contained, with a local pub (the Peacock Inn), Chinese take-away, Post Office with shop, and a very well-stocked village store with off-license. Not forgetting the children's playground just a short walk away.
Head for a great day out at Heythrop Zoological Gardens where you can discover an array of wonderful exotic animals, and finish your day with a pub dinner at one of the many pubs that sit within nearby Chipping Norton such as The Red Lion and The Fox. On the way home stop by the Diddly Squat Farm Shop to stock up on delicious local produce.
Visit the famous Cotswold market town of Moreton-in-Marsh, where you can enjoy a wonderful breakfast at The Cotswold Tea Room, before heading over to Cotswold Falconry Centre to discover the range of falcons, eagles, owls and other birds of prey, and finish off your day with a tipple and meal at The Black Bear Inn.
The bustling market town of Stow-on-the-Wold is nearby, where you can take a walk around the market square, which is the heart of the community and offers boutique shops, tea rooms, pubs and restaurants, as well as the Farmers’ Market which occurs every second Thursday of each month, featuring inviting local produce. Close by is Kingham, one of the foodie hubs of The Cotswolds, featuring the renowned Daylesford Organic Farm offering dining, a farm shop and stylish home wares.
